1954 Map of Dingmans Ferry

About this map

Delaware river crossings and rural Sussex County life define this mid-century landscape, centered on the historic ferry landing and the high ridges of Kittatinny Mountain. The era's emphasis on youth recreation is evident in the dense concentration of summer camps, such as Camp Minisink, Camp Mohican, and the 4-H Camp, scattered throughout the Stokes State Forest and near Fairview Lake. Local infrastructure includes the New York Susquehanna and Western railroad corridor and the Appalachian Trail winding across the high ground.
